Well, nobody stops them from telling the next door ll that they just rented out the place for $11k, right?

Having just moved from NYC, here's the breakdown from a professional income level perspective (In Sing $): Rent NYC - $3K Sing - $2.1K (for better accomodations -- about 2x the space!) Just curious, what are you renting here for 2.1? Is it an HDB flat or a faraway condo? Just took a quick look on c...

Lucky you; I can't change my passport here, and I have one page left on it already

I also have the same problem, also staying in a condo in the west mainly because my housing allowance was terminated and the place where I stayed before increased by 100% In 2009 I also have to leave Singapore for that same reason - extortionate rental increases. But, there are houses(not apartment...

What kind of furniture do you have for sale? Have you tried selling them here on classifieds.singaporeexpats.com ?

Hi,

I need to move some of my stuff to a different condo in the same area (Simei), so could anyone recommend good inexpensive movers with a covered truck/lorry?

I will do all my packing myself; if they can provide boxes that'd be a plus.

Thanks

By title I meant is it AVP or VP level, or manager/general manager, not the job title :) Anyway, I think that it's fair for a technical position in the bank right now, unless it's not a critical role that they absolutelly have to fill asap and are willing to pay extra. Everybody is doing cost-cuttin...

If you need it urgently but still can't find it, then you can get a 60-days trial directly from microsoft at

After 60 days I suppose it should offer you some option to buy/convert it to full version

I got an offer today and they will give me SD 140k, 1 month appartment, relocation, flight. Is this a good deal? Im a Unix administrator with more then 10 years experience. The condos are so expensive in Sing. Should I go for the rent too? Is it also in a bank, like your previous positions? What's ...

I recently relocated to Singapore and have been told that HSBC would offer a great service. So I opened an account and applied for my Credit Card as well... The service is the worst I've ever experienced in my life. Submitted documents got lost and had to be re submitted etc etc Is there any bank y...

Yes, dynamic ip's could be different, but in practice it's actually hard to get a new one; you should be offline for enough time to let your dhcp lease expire, and even then servers tend to cache this information and prefer to give you the old one. Try doing ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew if ...

Can't you ban an ip? Or is he using public wi-fi?
